hi please if you've solve tha problem can you share it please

hi, "Server unexpectedly closed network connection." I've tried reinstalling OpenSSH and also reinstalled WinSCP, but it still shows. I have no idea how to solve this, anyone can help?

It happened exactly the same to me. Step by step. Now I cannot us ssh. Did you find a solution for this?

Both the iPhone and the computer you're connecting from need to be on the same local WiFi network. This is do-able at a public WiFi spot but you'll want to make sure you turn SSH back off on your iPhone as soon as you are done transferring files or whatever you're up to.
You get a 169.254.x.y address when a device is unable to obtain a valid DHCP address. The way to fix that is to connect successfully to a WiFi network with a device that is dishing out dynamically assigned addresses correctly.

You've lost me there. Which WiFi IP address? Generally the only IP address you need to know during this process is he one for your iPhone – which will change periodically if you are using DHCP. When it does, you just make sure to enter the correct / current one in your desktop app you're using for SSH connections

Ah, ok – well hope you get restored and back to normal quickly.

Found out whats wrong… I've got the Ikee virus! google for info.

And sometimes winscp will disconnect during session and the same prob occurs.

Any ideas?

Hey – thanks for sharing and glad you got it worked out. Hate to say it, but I have a feeling another method might have been just to remove Icy and reinstall Cydia. My impression is that Icy is known to cause a number of severe issues.

– Cydia didn´t worked – Opens windows, and closed suddenly. Same thing with Cycorder and Terminal (SSH for iPhone)
– Icy works, but with late packages – very old versions.
– Erractic Wifi (sometimes worked for 5 minutes, sometimes for 5 seconds, sometimes doesn´t even shown SSIDs Networks)
– SSH trials over Wifi (while it was working), using puTTY Terminal provided a error with dyld, on _login package and freezed (dropped connection). Connections using WinSCP however, worked fine, and I was able to browse my iPhone.
(reason I posted this message originally).

I searched for several forums, (yes, Google is our friend, despite of its intention to take over the world 🙂 ) to compile what I here propose – and worked fine fine for me:

FIRST STEP: GAINING ACCESS OVER SSH USING TERMINAL

1) Open Icy
2) Go to sources and remove apt.saurik.com as a repository
3) Close Icy and reboot your iPhone (Power Off cycle, or Reboot using bigboss.us package)
4) Add apt.saurik.com as a repo again.

This process refreshed the cache and versions, solving the old package availability. Prior to that, my OpenSSH package was on version 0.4xxx, which caused the dyld _login error, trying to access over puTTY due to lack of library.

5)Enter on Icy 1.4xxx and find the OpenSSH package on version 0.5xxx (updated). Install and exit Icy.

SECOND STEP: RESTABLISHING CYDIA

After OpenSSH update to 0.5xx, you must connect using Wifi. This was a tricky task, due to Wifi erractic behavior. I´ve tried several recipes, looking for a consistent workaround. What worked the most was 1) Reset Network Settings, 2) Enter Airplane Mode and 3) while in Airplane mode, activate only Wifi. This lead to a status where you have no phone service, which in the end, is good as we´re trying to fix over terminal and don´twant anyone bothering us with a call
Whenever in Wifi config settings screen, you can see your Wifi networks, reconfigure your SSID Password to your router, and login immediately using puTTY using your iPhone´s IP over SFTP.
As usual, login as ´root´ and password ´alpine´ standard procedure. It took me more than 5 times to get access, probably due to erractic Wifi behavior, but I finally got access to the terminal prompt.

Then follow these steps to reinstall cydia and update library
1) Remove outdated Cydia application by typing: 'apt-get remove cydia' and confirmation phrase.
2) Refresh entire library by typing ´apt-get update´ and see your library refreshing
3) Reinstall Cydia by typing ´apt-get install cydia´ It will reinstall and add the apt7 library, which I believe was key to move forward.

THIRD STEP: REFRESH ALL PACKAGES WITH CYDIA

Here were when my Wifi became stable. Cydia identified 36 packages to update !!! Hopefully some of them fixed the Wifi preferences and priorities – I really don´t know exactly what happened, but as you´re stuck as I was, there´s nothing really to lose if you got till here. o/

Hope it helps !
